Andre Villas-Boas's Chelsea fate will reportedly be decided after the Blues' next two pivotal fixtures against Everton and Bolton Wanderers.

Reports have suggested that the former Porto boss is skating on thin ice at Stamford Bridge following a number of disappointing results, which have left them 14 points off the top of the table.

While the London club have attempted to play down any rumours suggesting that owner Roman Abramovich is unhappy with the 34-year-old, it is believed that two more defeats could mean the end for Villas-Boas, according to talkSPORT.

Reports have also claimed that the former Premier League champions are keeping an eye on newly-available Fabio Capello, who resigned as manager of England yesterday.
